How to print msg to a file?

[Guest_imported]

hi, all:
When an event occured(such as a link up trap) occured, will the HP Network Node Manager log into a log file in text format. (assuming that i have select the log option in the event message) If it does, where can i find this file?
If not, can i use the automatic action to manually log down the all the messages into a text file. How should i format the automatic action command so that the messages can be print to a file?
Thanks for your help...

Use the Print method and select a file. I can't remember the menu name, but it is in the browser window (maybe is in the action menu..sorry but I can't take a look at this moment).

It is a good tip use this printed messages when a new message arrives and you need to create new templates/conditions and it can be use as "test pattern matching file".

Hope this helps !!!
